Gofundme - interesting crowd sourcing web site I heard about today

The local radio morning show host brought this very interesting web site to my attention during today's show.

GoFundMe.com is what's known as a "crowdsourcing" site, where folks like us can raise money for worthy causes or even for ourselves.

I haven't done a thorough study of GoFundMe, but I like the spirit of the site. It seems to be organized and designed as a way to help those who need help. That's why I founded GivingAwayFreeMoney.com. The only difference is that you can personally solicit donations on GoFundMe, while I'm the one who funds you on my site.

Give it a look. You may find it to be another helpful tool if you are in need or know someone in need. Or perhaps, like me, you may even find a way to donate to someone else's need or cause.

Hi i set up and started a gofund me account.i havent had a single person help yet. But im trying. Its honest. Im crippled up . Cant earn money i despretly need . Good luck to everyone. I mran this. May God bless u and supply all your needs tnx

I actually started a campaign on gofundme.com before I found this site. It's great if you have a cause people wanna donate to, but I'm finding it very difficult to people to donate. If you'd like to help me out, you can share the link to my page on Facebook, Twitter, etc. www.gofundme.com/9nzcy8

I have an account on gofundme for others, my daughter and I started a charity to give winter clothes for kids,.in two years we got $35 :( dont have much faith in them but highly recommend plumfund I have one there right now to help with my sons medical stuff http://www.plumfund.com/pf/helpdamionplease

God bless this person. tears because my heart will do the same but my funds can't help me i could never imagine aour heater person doing beautiful works amen bless all those who need help and who have been helped

I had a go fund me before my disability went thru to try to get my medications. I have so many. I raised enough for a months worth but I did not really understand enough of what I was doing. Anyhow, I appreciate the opportunity to email you and will pray for a blessing. I can assure u in some way I will pass it forward. That's my nature:) happy 4th! Be safe

Hi. Month after month for two yrs. Ive posted on here. They wont even reply to me . i undubscribed. Im still getting emails. Ive told every funny thing that happens to me. Theres a lot. Even comidians get paid. Im crippled n need surgery. Never helped me. Never ever replied. Its a scam.

I have a go fund me account also and received nothing since signed up yesterday. It will be upsetting for me come April I am sure but still got to keep positive I guess all my details are on my page please take the time to just have a look wish me luck people and I wish everyone on here luck too. The world is a big place so many people in this world so many with millions and don't give a thought about how much £100 or 1,000 could help someone

Good MorningMy name is Patricia from NYC. I am seeking help with retrieving my towed vehicle so that I may be able to continue to take and pick up my 3 small children from school. The cost to do so is $1450. Please if you could graciously help I would be most appreciative. I have fallen a bit short of funds from my paycheck this pay period. Mother of 3

I live on a fixed income from SSI, I receive $10 worth of food stamps. My bills are over $800 a month. I've taken out loans over$4000 which I can't pay with my check. I lost my truck in a accident. I need just $10,000 to pay off these loans and to get a used truck.

My YouCaring page is: Help Jonathan for his Birthday/Christmas for 2017! via @youcaring http://tinyurl.com/yanj9vob It's for anyone who'd like to give!(my Birthday is September 16th) YouCaring is another donation website. It's different from GoFundMe, but it might be good for you. I'd appreciate any donations between now and sometime in January 2018, or for as long as that page is up. Thanks!

South African gran needs to buy a house for the orphans she is looking after we live in a house wth twenty five people one of the twins is epileptic n the other one is asthmatic I need money to help me make ends meet pls help me

Do you have a huge debt that has been giving you sleepless night? Or you need a reasonable capital to start a business of your dream?

The GSF INC USA. will help you with a donation. This is not a loan, its a free donation from us and this kind of donation only comes from us once in a year 2017/2018. Be smart, act fast and let us know how much you need and your location?

i have no idea if this is for real or not.... one can only hope that it is.growing up i was told... if you give something to someone, give it wholeheartedly... i have taken care of people, given when i had hardly anything, i was told it will come back to you.... well... it always made me feel good to share with someone in need but there were always the ones that forgot about the help when they are doing good again... i really hope that this is not someone playing with people who are in desperate circumstance

I don't know if you remember Percy Ross? But, many years ago he helped people in the same similar manner. Wow! He helped people who wrote him letters of request for money. No matter how big or small of reasons. All I can say is he just Loved people. An, he was truly a Blessing to many people. I tried to set up a go fund me account. But, I was so embarrassed about my being homeless, and in an controlling relationship that I took my account down and continue to pray, praise, meditate, read my Bible, and tell someone everyday how Great GOD IS. Then, I began to research and look for help and away to better myself and situation. I never thought in a thousand years that I would be in this perdictament in my life. I Know things got to change for the better and I believe destiny is real. But, for all that I have been struggling through for the past few years, it must be for my testimony. I can't say I know what you are going through unless I experienced it myself. So, to everyone who is struggling with life woo's or difficulties hold on a change is coming. ALWAYS REMEMBER TO PAY IT FORWARD, I WILL!!! I believe all things work together for the good of GOD, for all who Love GOD and serve GOD diligently. In JESUS NAME, AMEN

If you can say..a prayer for me being penny less and homeless be a great blessing..I know the Lord comeplys to a lot of people..I need help so much right now..S.S.D.I. Date is June 7th ..16 months with nothing ,after me getting rear ended at a red light on my motorcycle.. Just need a hand up..a old pick- up truck and insurance money and I could make it by scraping cans and such..get out of weather..I ask so meany people ,for help...please send prayer's ..have so much health problems.. Spine and neck, left arm shoulder.. Need fix no insurance.... Any way hope you and family have a great day ..like reading your stories... Your friend Darel Lee Kilcrease... Oh..my age I'm 59.years of age..have fun..:)

Hello Again, I am amazed to hear from you on this day. As, I began to write to you tears of Joy began to fall from my eyes. I have been through so much where do I begin. I will give u full detail of my pursuits and goals to accomplish when you send me your personal email address you are partnering with a woman of God Destined for Great Success. Sincerely, Uvetta Watkins

I just want to say God Bless You and Keep You Well I sent you a request yes but mostly I just want to say thank you for your kindness and generosity and care for others thanks again for everything.SincerelyThank You BunchesHolly MartinTexas

Hello Uvetta Watkins,I trust you are well.I was quite skeptical about receiving your story at first.When God called me to give, I promised to give with out judging from a personsstory or even their place in the spirit realm, for me it suffices that they are created of God. Commune about the matter with the spirit of God, if you still feel led to share the story,please share it. If you don't, feel free to send an account number to which I can make the EFT. Preferably an account which has no balance.Regards,

Me and my 2 week old baby need a place to stay please help and support my gofundme @ https://www.gofundme.com/25a7z-me-and-baby&rcid=r01-153816325423-f0efc0caa534456d&pc=ot_co_campmgmt_m please and thank you

I could really use this for a new place I just got left standed by my ex trying to stay positive but he was all I had left I stayed possitive he would change his anger but I guess it's just another monkey on my back I just need a start so I can get a roof and good life bavk

I've left a request, not sure I hold much hope of getting a reply I just don't seem to be the kind of person that every gets a break. I guess as much as I find it hard to trust this is genuine the site owner must also get people trying to scam for money and also has to find trust and honest people. I pray for everyone that has gone searching for help and I hope you get it, if not from here from somewhere and soon enough to make a difference x

God, please proved to me that in this world really2 exist the type of kind people who want to help others without asking for something.. every time I pray, i wish to meet with someone like that. someone who want to help me out from my poor life. God, I promise if my wish will come true.. I swear & i promise to do the same thing when my life changing better than now. Oh God I am very confident i'll get help from U God.. please fulfill my wish to sent someone for helping & give me chance to build a new life by giving me financial support to starting a small business. I promise to working hard & smart to expand my business up to succeed. oh God i'm begging... makes my life become rich so I can help other people who need help like i am so in the future there are no more children who don't get what they need as my sons just bcause their mom don't have more extra money every month. I'm struggling in my life as a single mother of 2 kids. I am very sad every time my children asked for something but I cannot give it to them because I can't afford it. Oh my Lord please send someone who can help me.. & please give him more wealthy, healthy & give him the joy of life so he could continue helping more people who need help like me..

I believe I will receive help to get my apartment asap not sure how but it's a must. So if any one wants to help a working mentality person to get a home/apartment asap.Thank you in advance.

I don't know who to ask for help anymore! I am 77 yrs old and I don't know who to turn to! It just seems that each day that goes by for me just keeps getting worse. I have always been a very hard working person ever since I was a young girl I have always worked for what I needed. I never asked for anything! Now, with my husband of 54 years gone I am handicapped, can no longer work to help myself out, with my bills piling up and I just don't know what to do. It has always been me helping someone else out! Now when I need help, there is no one to help me! I have turned to various churches only to be turned down! That really hurts! I just got off the phone with another scam call saying that they wanted to help me and then when they found out that I have no money they just hung up on me! I am having such a hard time right now. Each mo. I get an electric bill from N.A.E.C. here in Arkansas for anywhere from $538-$713.38 in which I just got the $713.38 on this past friday, March 6th! I am handicapped, no longer able to work, and because I can no longer pay such high bills I am under a lot of pressure! These elect. bills are just for 1 mo. Of course because of such large elect bills and me living on 1 Soc. Sec. ck. plus 1 sm. retire ck. I can no longer keep my bills paid and it is making me a nervous wreck! I am bent over 1/2 way and I lose my balance real easy and fall down. I have called the elect. Co. at least 4 times now and it just seems like they don't care as long as I have been paying these bills! But...it is causing me to fall so far behind on my other bills that I will never get caught up! I can't stand it anymore! I have a kitchen sink that has been plugged mover 6 mos. with no money to get it fixed, I cannot use the dishwasher because of the plugged sink so I get on my power chair with the dirty dishes and take them to be washed by hand in the bathroom across from the kitchen. Well, now the bathroom sink has flooded and now I have to take them to the bathroom and wash dishes in that sink, dry them and then take what I can in my power chair back to the kitchen. There are so many things in and out of my home that have not been able to have fixed because I don't have the money! One of my neighbors who lives about 2 blks. from me mows my grass as I have 2 power mowers that don't work and he noticed that my grass was not getting mowed and that was unusual. I explained that both mowers were not working and I had no money to get them fixed. I have a Mother who just had her 99th birthday on March 6th and I take care of paying her bills for her as she is no longer able to. The pressure is just getting to be too much for me. I have always been able to handle things, but...I can no longer do it myself with the bills piling up! I have to get back to Calif to get my Mother out of Pacific Gardens Assisted Living as she is paying $6,300 ea. mo. just to live there and that does not cover the rest of her bills. I need HELP and I don't know where to turn! I also need help packing so I can move back to Calif. to help my Mother out but...I don't even have the money to move back! I can't stay here w/o my family and these big elect bills. No one can believe the big elect. bills I have been paying and some of them have bigger homes than I do!
